The core of every microprocessor and digital signal processor is its data path. The heart of data-path and addressing units in turn are arithmetic units which include adders. Parallel-prefix adders offer a highly efficient solution to the binary addition problem and are well suited for VLSI implementations. This paper involves the design and comparison of high-speed, parallel-prefix adders such as Kogge-Stone, Brent-Kung, Sklansky, and Kogge-Stone Ling adders. It is found that Kogge-Stone Ling adder performs much efficiently when compared to the other adders. Here, Kogge-Stone Ling adders and ripple adders are incorporated as a part of a lattice filter in order to prove their functionalities. It is seen that the operating frequency of lattice filter increases if parallel prefix Kogge-Stone Ling adder is used instead of ripple adders since the combinational delay of Kogge-Stone Ling adder is less. Further, design and comparison of different tree adder structures are performed using both CMOS logic and transmission gate logic. Using these adders, unsigned and signed comparators are designed as an application example and compared with their performance parameters such as area, delay, and power consumed. The design and simulations are done using 65 nm CMOS design library.
